How A bout Peace?
IF there is no reasonable doubt, and we believe
there is none, that eventually the Axis powers will
be DECISIVELY beaten, then the kind of peace that
should follow such a victory ceases to be purely an
academic question. It becomes a matter of vital and
practical importance.
FOR many years, in fact ever since the defeat in
this country of the League of Nations, this de
partment has urged the revival of such an organiza
tion, with American adherence, and with teeth in it
By "teeth" we have meant an international police
force, not only with the power but the strength, to
enforce the covenant s provisions.
AS we have also stated many times in the past,
this is easy to say but all-fired hard to do, for it
means a definite limitation of national sovereignty.
And that is the rock on which the League split be
fore, and unless the worship of this sacred white
elephant ceases, or is materially modified, will split
again.
VES, we can't have our cake and eat it too. We
can't maintain peace and order between nations,
always at liberty to do whatever they wish, and have
tho nnwor tn An' nnvmnro than vca Mn maintain
peace and order between individuals WITHIN a
nation, enjoying the same complete freedom of action.
How long WOULD this country have endured, for
, .? , , . .j ,. , . , . ,
example, if such rugged individualists (and isola -
tionists!) as Al Capone, Dillinger and Baby-Faced
Nelson, had been allowed freedom to do whatever
THEY wished to do, while the police sat on the side
lines, and made notes on the progress of the colorful
rnnflinr?
LU" 1 , l . ..... . .
Yet that is precisely what the enforcement depart -
ment or tha European League of Nations did, when
Japan marched into Manchuria, and Italy invaded
Ethiopia.
TTHE best thing we have seen along this line is an
article in a recent Atlantic by Harry Scherman,
founder of the "Book of the Month" club entitled the
"Last Best Hope of Earth."
We quote its conclusion :
Since Hltlerlsm in its final essence Is an avowed attempt
to control the economic world union for tha prime benefit
of Germans, this attempt must be defeated so utterly that
it will never be tried again Just as the Idea of "secession"
has gone forever In the United States. Perhaps the peculiar
quality of the German mind cannot be changed, but the
Ideas in that mind regarding what other peoples will stand
for can certainly be changed.
JUEITHER Mr. Churchill nor Mr. Roosevelt has tried to
" make an exact blueprint of the peace. That peace will
be the hardest governmental Job that ever faced the world.
While its details cannot now be foreseen, the basic principle
upon which it has to be set up is plain: economic and
cultural world union is In existence. That great fact must
determine the nature of the peace. This unification la grow
ing closer and mora Intricate with every year and It must
be matched by a world political organization which, by
some agreed limitation of sovereignty, will allow that union
to function and progress without the deep conflict of
Interest that end in war,
DERHAPS It Is too much to expect that modern atates-
men will be as farseeing and audacious as our own
Founding Fathers. These great men were not to fearful of
"limitation of sovereignty" when necessity clearly Imposed
it. They adopted it as their key principle, and tha most
powerful nation in history was the result. Many Americana
blanch at the mere words today. Yet they will agree that
our own future progress requires that world war must end,
and that therefore there has to be what is often called a
"peace-enforcement union." Enforce peace how? Order is
maintained within every boundary by police. That Is the
first function of "sovereignty." When we talk of "inter
national policing," then, to maintain a world-wide peace.
It makes no sense without a higher control that In this one
respect at least must limit the sovereignty of each people. .
. . .
TNTIL this is done economic world union can never
realize those benefits which human achievement in
other fields so bountifully promises. Until this is done the
universally guaranteed "freedoms" of Mr. Roosevelt are
pure delusion. And until this la done there can be no end
to periodic world wars into every one of which we shall
be sucked.
IS It not clear that a peace based soundly upon this necet-
stty Is. as Lincoln put It, "the last best hope of earth?"
The men and women of this generation will "nobly save or
meanly lose it." To think that it will be meanly lost by no
effort to achieve it is to grade the modern human being
lower than all his forebears.

People who have not had the
advantage of a fair physical

some strange notions about the
purpose and effects of physical
training, notions imparted by
Instructors who, often enough,
have not had the advantage of
physical education. The chesty
complex that formerly charac

army recruits Is an instance of
this, and so Is the common mis
conception of deep breathing or
how to breathe.
The main fault with most
popular notions of deep breath

Comment
From Washington. D. C
Safety Belt For
War Industries
a
Floating Drydock
Effort Revived
Plane Carriers
Pacific Need
Br John W. Kelly
Washington, D. C, Jan. 8.
Things on the Pacific coast are
different since the Pearl harbor
debacle; army and navy offi
cers are viewing that territory
through different glasses than
prior to Dec. 7, 1941. The high
command la opposed to any
more new war industries being
located along the beach; views
with apparent alarm a sugges
tion that an industry be located
200 miles from the shore (the
original safety belt which has
been ignored almost everywhere
by army and navy), and wants
to plunge Inland far Inland,
say about 400 miles. -
Tha Issue was brought up by
the proposal to locate two fab
ricating plants to handle alum
inum, one at Los Angeles and
the other somewhere on the
Columbia river, presumably
near Troutdale. Jesse H. Jones
favored a single plant because
he had been told millions of
dollars could be saved by hav
ing one large plant instead of
two small ones several hundred
miles apart. Mr. Jones is the
last word In RFC, the agency
that is to provide the money.
Comes now the navy and
army, for once sharing the same
view, and they are not friend
ly to locating a fabricating
plant at Los Angeles. It is re
garded as too great a risk, and
army and navy do not want a
vital Industry damaged, de
stroyed or captured by the
Japanese. Nor do the admirals
and generals feel that a fabri
cating plant on the Columbia Is
the best place, and as for Puget
sound, that is out.
Various military men have
been saying that the fabricating
plant or plants should be sit
uated at least 400 miles in the
interior. On an airline from the
coast 400 miles would be some
where in Idaho east of Boise,
on the south, or almost any
where in the panhandle, the
Coeur d'Alene mountains or
Bitterroot mountains.
Spokane was mentioned In
these conversations, for there is
to be an aluminum plant (gov
ernment owned) at or near
Grand Coulee and a fabricating
plant could be located nearby.
But Spokane is not 400 miles
from the coast. It is about 2S0
miles from Pugct sound, air
line, and about 340 miles from
the ocean. Again, the war strat
egy board, when It is establish
ed, theoretically, a safety belt
200 miles from the shore also
wanted that line 200 miles from
any border (being too delicate
to mention Canada of Mexico).
Spokane is scarcely a Jump from
British Columbia. However, on
this point the officials say "we
are all one country now." The'
ammunition depot at Hermiston
barely made the grade under
the original 200 mile zone.
ANTICIPATING the need of
repairing naval vessels or mer
chant marine ships. Senator Mc
Nary last April Introduced a
bill authorizing a floating dry-
dock at Astoria and calling for
$3,000,000. Back from the navy
pronto came the bill with dis
approval written In large red
letters. The assistant secretary
of the navy wrote that there
was no need for a floating dry
dock tn the Columbia river:
Bremerton navy yard has the
equipment for repairing navy
vessels; there Is other equip
ment in San Francisco bay. Of
course, the assistant added, the
navy would not oppose a dry
dock at Astoria if local Interests
wished to build one.
One of the American freight
ers, with a cargo of lumber,
torpedoed by a Japanese sub-;
marine after leaving Puget
sound and Columbia river ports
for California, might have been
saved if It had put back to
Astoria and there had been
drydock available. This infor
mation reached the assistant
secretary of the navy. He tele-,
phoned McNary for details. The
latter reminded him that the
assistant secretary had disap
proved a drydock bill In April.
"Well conditions have changed,"
said the assistant. "Put tn your
bill again." The senator suggest
ed that the navy see the budget
director, obtain his consent that
the money would be forthcom
ing. Navy now realizes that
there must be some facilities
provided between Puget sound
and San Francisco bay to take
care of damaged vessels.

To the editor

Editor News-Review:
The awfulness of conditions
In the world today seems to
bear down with greater and
greater weight.
General W. T. Sherman said:
"War is hell." Then we might
say hate is the essence of hell,
for hate is the very foundation
of war. This is the third war
in 40 years, and by far the most
widespread and far reaching.
We can't blame one man or
one nation for the condition at
the present time.
There are a number of true
Americans citizens with national
and international insight in
world affairs, who hoped we
could meet the situation of the
time without bloodshed and the
loss of the manhood of our
country. In this country of free
dom they thought it proper to
express their opinion.
Should we smear them, should
